How fast can this Falcon do the Kessel Run? Any improvements?

The Kessel Run was one of the most heavily used smuggling routes in the Galactic Empire. Han Solo claimed that his Millennium Falcon "made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs". A parsec is a unit of distance, not time. Solo was not referring directly to his ship's speed when he made this claim. Instead, he was referring to the shorter route he was able to travel by skirting the nearby Maw black hole cluster, thus making the run in under the standard distance. By moving closer to the black holes, Solo managed to cut the distance down to about 11.5 parsecs.

I've chronographed BB's at 740fps. Haven't measured pellets. If you're using pellets, this will be just as slow to load as your breakneck; loading 1 at a time. BB's are much faster to load but not as accurate.

I'm not sure what a scemmer is. The Elite works upto 38mph (my top mph) for me on smooth water.

This is a very stable aircraft. It also has the power and performance to do the aerobatics you mentioned. Adding floats will limit this somewhat but the Beav' can be coaxed into exciting performances. This is model will not disappoint. IMHO FlyZone hit a home run with this model.

SusanI can probably help but I need more to go on than moves sideways to the left. Is this your first FP heli?Markmarknauman53@gmail.com

I mounted it on the inside canopy of a P 51 mustang (1,500 hp) took off did rolls, loops, stop turns, dives to 330 mph & 4 Gs then landed. The entire 1 hr video was rock solid.

It can depending on your load. Personally, I wish I would've gone with the falcon 2 now. For light load it's great, I keep running into the problem of storage. It does take some getting use to with the weight pulling on your back if you carry as much as I do.

I tried that. It worked just fine for a couple of days until I got 30mph gusts. It popped the 2nd chip LM2596 at that point. Was pretty cool until then.

It your referring to the slam-fire, It can go up to relatively fast speeds. As long as you pull the handle all the way back before pushing forward to prevent jams, I'm sure you could shoot up to 4 darts per second. Another recommendation for if you are going to be using this blaster a lot, INVEST IN ELITE (blue) DARTS. The other darts work okay, but when I used them they jammed almost 50% more than when I used elite darts. Overall the elite darts are better, so if you are going to buy new darts be sure to buy the blue ones.

I have the availability of 3s on my TH for the days i just wanna go insanely fast. Most of the time i do run 2s because its enough speed. Also if u ever wont to put the esc in something else you'll have the option for 3s if it can handle it. Hope this makes since. I run 3s instead of 2s in my scx10 for the times i need just a little more brap to get over something i just cant crawl.

top speed, with the stock motor and gear, maybe 10 or 15, not much faster than your regular rc car you would purchase at walmart. But with the upgraded motor and a 5500 nimh battery it goes fast enough to enjoy. Only thing I have had trouble finding is the spur that fits on the motor. But given a brand new motor is only like 5 bucks, might as well replace it if you need a new spur

You need to do your research with MinnKota before ordering. I purchased this troller in June of 2014, knowing it didn't have auto-pilot but also knowing that it could be upgraded at some point in the future. At the time, I couldn't afford the auto-pilot model. This troller has performed beyond expectations. The deploy assist lever is a great feature and the improvements to the foot pedal are much appreciated. Maybe someday, when I can afford it, I'll upgrade to iPilot Link with the Humminbird. In the meantime, I'll be enjoying my PowerDrive V2.

I use it for my daughter who is in high school softball. When I use the lite flight softballs throws around 50 - 55mph.

Not very fast . My some said it was a peice of crap . It is really thin plastic and cheap!!! Don't buy it!

For gearing it depends on what your doing. And the esc runs a little hot bashing hard on 2s.

I only ran this once with the stock motor and speed control to test it out because I bought it to run brushless with the all steel gears that it has. It's not very fast out of the box, probably like 15 mph . I never tried it with a Lipo, I removed the factory motor and esc and put in a 3800kv brushless

It has three speeds. Katrina, 500lb conventional bomb, and Extinction level event. My itty bitty girlfriend bought this as a gift not realizing it can be used for Sci-fi movie special effects.
